You Chu was a staunch Cao Wei faction at the beginning.
He led the soldiers of Longxi County to resist the Han army. After being defeated and captured, he refused to surrender and was thrown into prison.
Jiang Tuo cherished his talent and threatened the lives of the people in Longxi County to ask him to do something for Longxi County.
You Chu's idea at the beginning was very simple. At worst, he would learn from Xu Shu and enter Jiangying without saying a word. But Jiang Tuo was not Cao Cao. He really trusted himself.
He often leaves political affairs directly to him, regardless of his unwillingness.
They often discuss political affairs with him, such as Liangzhou's development issues and how to restrict wealthy families. When it came to rising, he waved his hand and asked him to write down a detailed charter.
Damn it, I'm Wei Jun!
You Chu wanted to go on strike or come up with some bad ideas. Whenever this happened, it felt like there were two villains fighting in his mind.
Yier said: For the sake of the people of Liangzhou, my own honor and disgrace are nothing. Besides, Jiang Tuo also trusts me.
Another son said: How can you devote yourself to thieves if you are to eat the king's salary?
When Jiang Tuo arrived at the front hall, he saw You Chu and immediately walked up, took You Chu's hand, and said with a smile on his face: "Master You, it's a good thing that you are in charge of Longxi County these days, otherwise everything would be in chaos. Got it!"
You Chu sighed, took out the memorial from his arms, and said, "Sir, a few days ago, didn't you say you wanted to rectify the administration of officials? This is an immature idea of a lower official. Please take a look at it."
Jiang Tuo looked at it, and You Chu explained on the side: "The most important thing in government is equality. The emperor's crimes are the same as those of the common people. But now the people dare not sue the officials, and they cannot sue the officials."
"Your Excellency should issue a decree, and any common people have the right to sue the wealthy."
Jiang Tuo nodded: "Master You is right!"
"Most of the talented people today come from wealthy families. Even if they are upright, they will subconsciously favor the wealthy families when doing things. Therefore, officials must adopt a term system and geographical restrictions. For example, officials who are from Longxi County are not allowed to Being an official in Longxi County is to prevent officials from colluding with wealthy families."
"We will vigorously reward honest officials, establish the image of honest officials, and tell the people of Liangzhou that there are honest officials in the Han Dynasty, and only a few are corrupt."
You Chu raised his head and spoke clearly.
He talked about the farming issues in Liangzhou from the perspective of official administration.
"There are many cases of wealthy families hiding their fields and hiding their population. Your Excellency should thoroughly check the household registration, and those bandits who are forced to go up the mountain should also be properly resettled to avoid chaos."
Jiang Tuo was stunned when he heard this, and his eyes looking at You Chu became more and more strange.
What a fucking talent!
No wonder he was able to lead the soldiers of Longxi County to resist the prime minister for more than two months.
Ma Su looked at You Chu for a while and Jiang Tuo for a while. When he came, didn't Jiang Tuo say that he was making decisions for You Chu?
Why is it the other way around now, with You Chu talking at length and Jiang Tuo nodding his head?
Who is the governor?
"Youchang, what do you think? How should Liangzhou be governed?" Jiang Tuo turned his head and asked with a smile.
Nowadays, Liangzhou is in ruins and waiting to be revitalized. Most of the wealth of the wealthy families has been robbed, and they are just surviving.
As for the wealth, part of it was used to build the army, and the other part was all invested in people's production.
Hearing this, Ma Su straightened his face and said seriously: "I believe that the most important thing in governing Liangzhou is education. We must encourage the people to work hard and let them not be afraid of difficulties and actively participate in the construction..."
"Government must be governed by virtue, and officials must perform their duties and treat the people like brothers and sisters. The people will also respect the officials like they serve their parents. Only in this way can everyone work together as one to govern Liangzhou."
Jiang Tuo was dumbfounded and in a daze. For a moment, he seemed to have returned to his previous life and relived the scene of the leadership meeting.
At first glance, it seems to be very reasonable and contagious.
Thinking about it more carefully, it seems that he didn't say anything.
"Okay, I understand what you mean." Jiang Tuo waved his hand and said, "Now that we have discussed the matter, it's up to you, Lord You, to proceed according to the determined strategy."
You Chu pursed his lips, as if he was really entangled with Shu Han.
After You Chu left, Jiang Tuo met with a few more people. After chatting for a while, Jiang Tuo revised a few memorials, stretched his body, and then stuck his head out to look at the sun outside.
After looking at it, Jiang Tuo immediately took out his crossbow and tested its elasticity.
Ma Su looked puzzled and asked, "Sir, what are you doing?"
"Oh, I want to go out for a trip." Jiang Tuo said.
"Are you going to patrol the military defense?"
"No..." Jiang Tuo shook his head. Seeing what Ma Di recorded on the paper, he asked, "What are you writing down?"
Ma Su said: "Before I came, the Prime Minister specifically told me to learn more, read more, and ask more questions from you, so I want to record your words and deeds and learn your style of doing things."
"Let me take a look." Jiang Tuo couldn't help but said, took the paper, only glanced at it twice, and his old face suddenly darkened.
It clearly says, "Tuo drank too much and didn't wake up until Mao hour. Chu reported the political affairs of Liangzhou, but Tuo didn't know much about it. He was just a common man, so he followed it."
"You Chang... how could you write blindly?" Jiang Tuo said earnestly: "If I hadn't made the decision, would You Chu dare to bring up such an idea? After all, this officialdom is my credit!"
Ma Su shook his head.
Jiang Tuo sighed and said seriously: "This time I went out to inspect the people's situation. You also know that it is very dangerous outside the city, so I prepared a bow and arrow. Do you understand?"
"understood."
Jiang Tuo once again inspected the people's sentiments. In order to understand more real people's lives, he led a few soldiers to go deep into the mountains and forests without fear of danger.
Therefore, this inspection of the public sentiment was very fruitful, with seven or eight wild rabbits and a few pheasants.
Ma Su pursed his lips and looked at Jiang Tuo, who was proud of himself on horseback. He was patrolling the people's sentiments. He was obviously out hunting!
He is the governor of a state, how could he be so neglectful of political affairs?
If he were the prime minister, reviewing memorials at his desk every day, he might not even have time to eat.
There are also huge differences between people.
When he met people farming on the road, Jiang Tuo would ask his soldiers to take out flour cakes, distribute them to the people, and then chat with them with a smile.
"Is this fertilizing? When spring comes, we can plant crops."
"Yes." The old man grinned: "In the past, we cultivated the land owned by those wealthy families, and the annual harvest was only 30%. Now, the government has allocated the land to us, haha, we must manage it well."
"I heard that the government will issue a notice that the tax cannot be higher than 40%."
The old man said these words with full of longing in his eyes.
One of the young men said: "I have already said that the Han Dynasty is much better than the Wei Dynasty, especially our new governor. He has put down the bandits and let the wealthy families distribute the fields. We don't have to worry about starvation in the future."
"Then you don't have to worry about your land being taken away by wealthy families, right?"
"Don't worry, the wealthy families don't dare to take it away now! A few days ago, I saw with my own eyes a wealthy family member who trampled on a field, and was scolded by the government officials, and they didn't dare to talk back!"
Jiang Tuo nodded. The wealthy people in Liangzhou were in panic, saying that the bandits were causing chaos and the people of Liangzhou were in dire straits and had no clothes to cover their bodies.
In fact, it was not the case. While the wealthy clan was being wiped out, You Chu took over the wealthy clan's fields in an orderly manner, and then distributed the fields to the people, encouraging the people to farm with peace of mind.
Rich families cannot represent the people's hearts.
Jiang Tuo bid farewell to them, sat on his horse, looked at the people working in the fields from a distance, and fell silent for a while.
Ma Su looked at Jiang Tuo's serious profile and was stunned for a moment. Could it be that... Mr. Jiang really inspected the people's sentiments and did not come to hunt?
Is he now thinking about the next policy... what to do? Managing a place is indeed very complicated. It involves the lights of thousands of families and requires careful planning. It is not easy.
"Lu Qing..."
"grown ups?"
"Look at the little lady working under the tree half a mile away. Isn't she very pretty?"
Ma Su: "..."
It must have been an illusion just now.
